Another minimalist, too lazy to carry anything else, pocket carry... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hi! This is what I call My lightweight summer EDC when under 6 miles from home That's usually anything from going to shop two streets away from my house (in which case I ditch the playing cards and smokes) to a pub meeting with friends in another town with frequent mass transit options. It would get greatly upgraded if I had to go for an overnight or ie. to the city (some 25 miles from here). Right front pocket - Vic Pioneer without the keyring nub - minimal house keys on a clip - some coins (mainly for bus or train tickets) Left front pocket - a "wallet", which is an inner fold from my old wallet with ID and paper money. - my old-time mobile phone as the primary one got sent for warranty repair (this one is Samsung Galaxy Young 2 Duos, big name for a piece of **** LOL) Right back pocket - lighter - case of smokes Left back pocket - handkerchief - playing cards Glasses and some cheap Naviforce watch I got for free on Gearbest are not in my pockets. I'm testing the Pioneer and I really like the set of tools and the feel of sturdiness but I feel weird without a - woodsaw (I also have the Farmer without nub) - keyring with clip (I also have Camper II ecoline) ... but I'm going to try it for some light summer clothes carry...
I wear a pair of Lucky Brand Legend slim straight raw five pocket jeans nearly every day, being a budding raw denim hobbyist- they're very similar in cut to Levi's 501s but have a bit shallower pockets than the standard sanforized 501s typically do. I keep my pockets loaded thusly: Front right: knives, usually a medium-large tactical folder like a RAT 1 and a full size SAK or medium traditional, occasionally a leather pocket sheath with an Izula and Vic Pioneer; begleri. Watch/fifth pocket: challenge coin; typically copper, has the Gadsden Flag snake on one side. Occasionally an NRA challenge coin with the NRA eagle on one side and the text of the Second Amendment on the other. Back left: Pilot g2, mini comp notebook in a leather cover. Back right: Saddleback medium bifold. Front left: Car keys (including a Photon, my old dog's last rabies vaccination tag before we had to put her down, and a CRKT Viva to keep it accessible in the pocket via clipping), small flashlight (usually a Streamlight Microstream or Mag LED Solitaire), lighter (usually a Bic, but I don't carry it religiously, being a nonsmoker), Samsung Galaxy s7 in a UAG case.

Here's mine. My wallet, keys & other general tools stay in my bag for the most part. Hitch & Timber Cadet, SOG Sogzilla, Streamlight MicroStream, Fisher Space Pen, leather Field Notes pad/cover & iPhone 6 in OtterBox case.
Here is my current pocket dump for Feb 2018. This is all carried in a pocket in my cargo pants/shorts and/or on my belt.

I hate feeling helpless, and I hate having to stop what I'm doing to go look for a tool.
Having been asked that on a few occasions myself, I'm actually considering buying a dolls' house kitchen sink and adding it to my EDC bag ready for the next time!
This is most of what I keep in my pockets short of my wallet Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
Its the Victorinox DayPacker! Its a great simple lightweight SAK which has quickly become my favorite EDC blade.
